Comment on Xbox is still committed to making consoles, says boss Phil Spencer

  Xbox is Microsoft so that’ll literally never happen.

  Microsoft already uses Linux and in fact even develops its own Linux distribution since quite some time because Windows just isn’t good enough for certain tasks: github.com/microsoft/CBL-Mariner

  Surface Duo is another Linux-based product by Microsoft.

    Surface Duo uses Android though so I wouldn’t put it in the same vein as Linux distros. Microsoft uses Linux for their web services like everyone else, but there is no way they’re going to push people to using their competitor on consumer products.

      Android is Linux.

      here is no way they’re going to push people to using their competitor on consumer products. They want people to stay on Windows.

      Windows Phone is dead, Android is not.
